# Dave's Psychomotor Taxonomy Classifier

## Model Description

This model classifies educational learning objectives according to **R.H. Dave's Psychomotor Domain Taxonomy** (1970), which categorizes motor skills and physical abilities into five progressive levels.

### Taxonomy Levels

- **Level 0: Imitation** - Observing and copying actions of others
- **Level 1: Manipulation** - Performing actions according to instructions
- **Level 2: Precision** - Skills executed with accuracy and control
- **Level 3: Articulation** - Coordinating multiple skills and adapting
- **Level 4: Naturalization** - Automated, unconscious mastery

## Model Details

- **Model Type**: BERT-based sequence classification
- **Base Model**: `bert-base-uncased`
- **Fine-tuned on**: Custom dataset of psychomotor learning objectives
- **Language**: English
- **License**: Apache 2.0

## Training Data

- **Dataset Size**: 298 learning objectives
- **Balance**: ~60 examples per level
- **Domains**: Medical/Healthcare, Sports, Performing Arts, Skilled Trades, Technology, Culinary Arts, Manufacturing, Emergency Services, Laboratory Sciences, Fine Arts
